No one was home when the fire broke out, Worthy said, but one of the residents returned home, found smoke and fire when she opened the door and called E-911, he said. Two adults and three children were displaced.

Firefighters from the Culkin and Fisher Ferry volunteer departments were on the scene for about two hours, he said. No injuries were reported.

The cause of the fire was under investigation, Worthy said.
